SYNOPSIS
nvtop [options]
DESCRIPTION
nvtop is an ncurses-based GPU process monitor, similar to htop but for GPUs. It displays real-time GPU utilization, memory usage, temperature, and running processes.
The tool supports NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel GPUs, providing a unified interface for monitoring GPU resources.

CAVEATS
NVIDIA needs driver 410+. AMD needs ROCm. Intel needs i915 driver. Feature support varies by GPU vendor.
HISTORY
nvtop was created by Maxime Schmitt to provide an htop-like experience for GPU monitoring. It started with NVIDIA support and later added AMD and Intel GPU support.
